I had a request this month to do a deep, warm red shade as the background for the nursery. It seems to be the big color this season in fashion and furnishings so it seemed perfect. Looking back through past boards I found one that I had already done in a dark red or maroon shade, so not to repeat myself, I looked for a slightly brighter tone. I found Punky Pink, a beautiful berry color from Lullaby Paints. I took a cue from the name and added lots of wild funky color and graphics. I was thinking less punk rock and more Punky Brewster. Who’s a fan?

We have additional inspiration for your Punky Pink nursery on our Pinterest page. There are many more decor options to help you customize this colorful, funky space.

Fantastic Pink is an appropriately named shade of pink for this fantastic nursery. I added a graphic touch to the wall with a corner of chalkboard paint and the bold combination of black, white and pink is softened with a little greenery and some florals.

We have more products and inspiration for your Fantastic Pink nursery on our Pinterest page (including other rug options!) to help you customize the perfect pink space for your little one. We happened to find a lot more great stuff this month that didn’t fit on the final board but works perfectly for this color scheme!

After more than thirty nursery boards where I’ve used Lullaby Paints colors as the backdrop, I was starting to worry that I had chosen all my favorite shades of wall paint. Of course there were a few more colors that would be perfect for use on accent furniture pieces, but I wasn’t sure how many more colors were left to use for nursery inspiration. Of course you can always color match from other brands to create your favorite zero VOC paint, but you can imagine my delight then when Lullaby Paints updated their site, adding hundreds of new shades to their shop!

It was time to do another yellow nursery and instead of a handful of options, I found…

I was looking for a medium (not too light nor too dark), rich (but slightly muted) yellow that would create a cozy, modern atmosphere. I think Golden Glow is a perfect shade for anyone brave enough to go beyond the pale, so to speak, when it comes to yellow.

As usual, we have a whole Pinterest board full of additional options and products to round out your Golden Glow Yellow Nursery.

As tempting as it was to use the paint color name as my inspiration–Azure Sea— I resisted the obvious. Once I found the Treescape Dorrance Chair at Anthropologie, I just couldn’t help myself from including it and so I had my direction. This space is all about the beautiful feminine colors and luxurious textures. We have a lot more options for you to use in your space on our Pinterest Board, but I think we’ve struck just the right balance here, no? So, who’s having a girl?

I know I used some really luxe items on this board but other than the crib, the most expensive items aren’t specifically for babies or kids so they can last forever in other parts of the home. If you love really love something and want to splurge on it in the nursery, think about where else you can use it or keep it as part of the child’s space as they grow. If you love the look of the board but need more affordable options for some pieces, check out the Azure Sea Nursery Inspiration Pin Board for more ideas or send me a message and I’m sure we can find beautiful alternatives for you!

I’m super excited to start a new year of our inspiration board series with Lullaby Paints! We’re getting started with Snowy Fleece. Yup, it’s white, but it’s a beautiful creamy warm white that goes really well with dark woods. I stayed away from white for a long time, but the last two rooms I’ve painted have been white. If you need any convincing that white is a great nursery option, we’ve got a Pinterest board that will prove it.

The items on the Snowy Fleece Nursery Inspiration Pinterest board are just as great as what we’ve included here, so if you enjoy this scheme, please visit the board for more items to consider. We have furniture alternatives as well as other accessories to round out the rest of the room. We really just can’t include everything in one image! Find more art, curtains, additional toys, extra bedding items etc…

Anyone looking forward to spring yet? Get ready for the season of rebirth with this springtime palette inspired by and featuring artwork from The Lion & The Lark. We’re working with BoomBoom Prints to spotlight some of their artists, and The Lion & The Lark really caught our eye for their colors and messages.

With inspirational prints and cozy corners for reading and imagining, this space is perfect for dreaming up big plans for a special little girl.

When designing your nursery, you’ve got to pick a piece or two to serve as inspiration and the spring board from which to start making choices. I usually like to use the most colorful pieces as my spring board. This is often art, a rug, or as in the case of my own child’s nursery, the bedding.

If you’re looking for colorful combinations of modern patterns for your nursery bedding, I recommend browsing the set offered by our sponsor, Modified Tot. One of my favorite Mod Tot Exclusive designs is the Kenzie collection. I love the coral, aqua and pink combination and I particularly like the Triangles fabric pattern. I think Kenzie was a great inspiration for this modern feminine nursery board.

From the design duo at Little Crown Interiors, this modern lime green nursery is simple, but super stylish. Bright pops of lime green, a patterned rug and fun wallpaper are the perfect accessories for the sculptural furniture pieces that include the Maclaren (Netto Collection) Louis Crib and Dresser (now discontinued), a mid-century side table and a beautiful Eames Lounge with Ottoman.
